Revision as of 09:44, 18 January 2017

Version 2.0 of my XFDcloser scripts (FFDcloser, TFDcloser, CFDcloser) will be located at User:Evad37/XFDcloser.js.

Proposed features:

  • It will be a single script, rather than separate scripts for each XfD venue (easier to maintain / fix bugs / add new features)
  • Enter result, rationale, options via a form (similar to User:Mr.Z-man/closeAFD or Twinkle)
  • Preview button in the form (for the entered result & rationale)
  • Therefore, the inline closing links will be something like "[Close discussion]  [qK]  [qD]  [Relist]", with [Close discussion] opening the aforementioned form
  • Add support for closing AFD discussions, as a replacement for User:Mr.Z-man/closeAFD2.js
  • New feature: Unlink backlinks. Probably by calling the Twinkle script with preset reason and page.
  • Better support when the nominated pages aren't in a neat and tidy list, e.g. some are collapsed, or there are linebreaks between list items
  • Behind-the-scenes improvements to displaying "working...", "done", and error/warning messages
  • Fix "Re-creates deleted talk page" bug

See an (early) design prototype for the input form at https://jsfiddle.net/Lx63ha08/ (click on different results to see the various options pop up)

Pinging @Primefac, Pppery, Plastikspork, Omni Flames, Frietjes, Czar, DeltaQuad, and Jo-Jo Eumerus: (please also ping anyone else that you know uses my scripts): Please leave any request, comments, or other feedback in a new section below. - Evad37 [talk] 02:12, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why was I pinged here? I have never used TfdCloser, nor do I plan to. Pppery 02:14, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I got that from the User talk:Evad37/TFDcloser.js talk page (you left a message a while ago about collapased nominations not relisting properly... but now I see it was Omni Flames who did the relist) - Evad37 [talk]
Sweet, sounds good. I've got this on my watch list now. Looking forward to it! Primefac (talk) 02:37, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
